Barcelona’s Pedri to be sidelined for a month due to hamstring injury
The 20-year-old midfielder was forced off the field in the Blaugrana's 2-2 Europa League draw with Manchester United as he was replaced by Sergi Roberto in the first half. The club confirms the Spaniard will be out of action for more than a month.
Already without Sergio Busquets and Ousmane Dembele,
Barcelona
has been hit with another blow as
Pedri
will be out of action for more than a month after picking up a hamstring injury in their European clash against Manchester United on Thursday. Scoring four goals in his last nine matches, Pedri proved to be a star player for Xavi Hernandez at Camp Nou.
The Catalan giants wrote in a
statement:
"FC Barcelona's Pedri has injured the rectus femoris muscle in his right thigh (hamstring). Following tests on Friday morning the damage has been confirmed and he will be unavailable for selection until his leg has recovered."
Barcelona hosted the first leg at Camp Nou with Marcos Alonso and Raphinha scoring for the Blaugrana, while Marcus Rashford and an own goal from Jules Kounde leveled the result for the Red Devils.
